Don’t Miss Atonement

Last Updated on Sun November 13, 2022 @ 12:54 pm

This year the Overcomer Ministry is missing out on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement.  They will be celebrating it a day late on the evening of the 5th.  This is when Yom Kippur ends.

The Overcomer Ministry appears to try to keep the Feast Days but you’ll find that they are always just a day late on something.  That might not be much but it’s enough to miss it completely.  And since it puts itself forth as the Ministry of Time with the Prophet of Time and that what it declares is urgent for the Last Day Church so that it doesn’t miss out.  This late timing should be a stark warning to all that it misses it by just that much.  Just that much is enough to miss it completely.

This is an apt description of the Overcomer Ministry.  In some ways, they are just so close, yet they are just so far off.  And that is the deception of the Overcomer Ministry – how close it seems to be to the truth.  But just enough off that it makes everything wrong (James 2:10).

So for the ministry that puts itself forth as the preeminent ministry revealing the times, the observation that we have from it, throughout the past to the current day, is that we see this uniform witness of them always being late.  That is the testimony that we all have witnessed for decades.  That is the witness that we all need to heed, that this is not a ministry or a man that we can rely on to be on time (Pr 25:19).

Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint  (Proverbs 25:19)

In fact, the reliance that we can have, as dictated to us from its past, is that they will be late.  So if there is some world-shaking event, some biblical revelation that we need to know to be prepared for, we need to realize and face it that the track record that the Overcomer Ministry has established is that they will not know or predict or prepare until after the fact.  So we better look somewhere else.

This is not speculation.  This is not going off that Brother Stair is not correct or that he’s not a prophet.  This is just looking at the track record that has always come down the line.  The prophecies about Ronald Reagan are one of the greatest examples of this – spinning many more false flags off the original failed prophetic timing.  All of the predictions that have come out of the Overcomer, aside from the few real ones that he aired long ago like Dumitru Duduman, have failed.  You don’t hear men like him aired anymore, while you do hear false prophets and occultists like Rick Bell and William Branham aired.  Why is that?

Yom Kippur is the most holy day of the year.  It comes on the 10th day of the Days of Repentance that started on Rosh Hashanah.

So, if you’re planning on keeping the most holy Day of Atonement.  Then you’re going to want to keep it starting on the evening of Tuesday the 4th of October 2022.  It is a day of rest (no work) because it is a High Sabbath, and a day of fasting.  It is the day of sacrifices of atonement that the priests and the people and atonement for the Tabernacle and Altar.  To cleanse the priests and people from their sins and purify the Holy Place.  We should recognize the spiritual application of this in our own lives.

Now when these things have been so prepared, the priests are continually entering the outer tabernacle performing the divine worship, but into the second, only the high priest enters once a year, not without taking blood, which he offers for himself and for the sins of the people committed in ignorance.  The Holy Spirit is signifying this, that the way into the holy place has not yet been disclosed while the outer tabernacle is still standing, which is a symbol for the present time.  Accordingly both gifts and sacrifices are offered which cannot make the worshiper perfect in conscience, since they relate only to food and drink and various washings, regulations for the body imposed until a time of reformation.  (Hebrews 9:6-9  NASB95)

But in those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins year by year.  For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.  Therefore, when He comes into the world, He says,

“Sacrifice and offering You have not desired,
But a body You have prepared for Me;
In whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You have taken no pleasure.
“Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come
(In the scroll of the book it is written of Me)
To do Your will, O God.’”

After saying above, “Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You have not desired, nor have You taken pleasure in them” (which are offered according to the Law), then He said, “Behold, I have come to do Your will.” He takes away the first in order to establish the second.  By this will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Every priest stands daily ministering and offering time after time the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins; but He, having offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, sat down at the right hand of God, waiting from that time onward until His enemies be made a footstool for His feet.  For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are sanctified.  (Hebrews 10:3-14  NASB95)

Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to enter the holy place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He inaugurated for us through the veil, that is, His flesh, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.  Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful (Hebrews 10:19-23  NASB95).

Let us at this time of the year remember Jesus, our great high priest Who was able to make atonement for us by His own blood.  Let us turn from our sins and turn to Him anew, bringing Him the offering and sacrifice of our lives to His will.  Remember Him Who can perfect our conscience and sanctify us.  Shalom!
